Summer mercato thread 2017-18 (42 Viewers)

[Adrian]

Only Matuidi rehashed rumors mentioned. Nothing on the CM front lately.

Yep and that was the weakest area for us last season.

Looks like this summer will be our best market in years. No major sales and some fantastic players coming in.

What?

Last mercato easily beats it if we end up signing these names.

Pjanic, Alves, Benatia, Pipita are way better than our current target. Plus there's also Pjaca who was unlucky.

We're linked to Matteo Anzolin.

If Juventus signs Douglas Costa, Juve will replace Alves with an Italian right back. (Mediaset's Raimondi)

So you sure Alex Sandro is gonna stay?

Dani Alves is already a huge loss in quality though, as much as i hate to say it.

Marca saying Ceballos is close to a deal for Real after rejecting Farca...don't know how reliable is Marca for Real. Too bad, his price is quite low...

We sold Pogba though.

Schick, Costa and Bern is awesome.

Like we should have.

Not really that awesome when you realize they all cost around 110-120mln while neither of three is an impressive signing. Not even close to Pjanic, Alves, Higuain level.

We're just overpaying for 3 good players. Or 2, and one big potential.

Hard to compare players in different positions. Costa can be as good for us as Alves if he replicates his form for Bayern in the first season, if Bern lives upto his potential he can become a fantastic player too.

That's the thing.

When we signed Pjanic, Higuain and Alves there were no ifs to begin with.

You're placing your hope on a regain of old form plus a development which might not happen.

It's all about improving our squad. Costa, Bern and Schick all do that. We had Stuaro and Lemina for attacking positions last year, instead now we'll have some talent in the first 11 and off the bench.

So from what i read (had little time)

Bernadeschi
Douglas Costa
Cancelo
Sandro staying

Pleased @Osman ? I dont know the fullback, but apparently he's rather good. But its Costa+ Berna while keeping Sandro


No cm news lately tho

@Mark @Xperd

Where is the cm news ?

CM can still be MAtuidi or N'Zonzi but like always Beppe can surprise us. SMS would be awesome but doubt it will happen this year.
As for fullbacks it probably be a mix of Italians and Portuguese.

[MikeM]

Madrid is so stacked in midfield now with young players who have to play. Llorente and Ceballos now.

Beppe needs to work on getting Kovacic.

Let it be Darmian if that's the case

Marca is the best source for Real news

Which means it's probably as good as done

 

[Dostoevsky]

No surprise there, though, everyone expected him to go there.

 

[Orgut]

D.Costa Bernardeschi and it seems to be Cancelo
Keita seems to go to Chelsea which is annoying since I rate Keita more than noth D.Costa and Bernardeschi

Mostly this. We had an amazing and team only lost Alves. We lacked competition and rotation

Berna, Costa Schick are amazing additions. Theyll still need to get past Mario and cuads aswel,.

Was this mentioned? I don't think he has his own thread.

That career

 

[Dino_mk]

------------------- Higuain
Costa-----Dybala/Berna------Berna/Dybala

It's more likely Dybala stays central.

Costa on right is likely scenario.

Berna - Dybala - Costa

They can all switch positions. Three players switching positions will be nightmare for any defense.

Don't know much about Pereira

 

[digitalbash]

What happened to the Mbappe rumors? @Mark now that United signed the fat ass from Belgium, will Chelsea be interested in our local fat guy?
